CHILDERS: "In the meantime, we are learning some new information about former trim campaign manager, Paul Manafort which could implement his testimony in front of the Senate judiciary Committee set for next week on Russia’s attempted meddling and the 26 election. The near times reporting that Paul Manafort was in debt to pro-Russian interests by as much as $17 million before joining the Trump campaign back in March of 2016. Let’s bring in our legal panel to talk about this. Thank you both for joining us. According to Politico, we have a date of July 26 square Paul Manafort, Jared Kushner, and Donald Trump, Jr., will testify. They have not answered that call to testify yet, there are still mulling it over. Let’s begin with Paul Manafort and the latest information that we received an reference to this huge debt."
TEWOLDE: "Doing business with Russia isn’t illegal, but when that business then influences his policy, you’re likely to have violations. With the investigation now, looking into manna for its tax and business records to see if there have been any criminal violations, that opens the door up to now possibly looking at the presidents tax and business records, which we know to this day, the president refuses to stand over. It’s going to be very interesting to see as this investigation continues, what they uncover, but I wouldn’t be surprised, especially since now, you have the president showing his most loyal supporter and throwing him under the bus. I wouldn’t be surprised if he fires Mueller."
